Hi All,
I just got the USPS shipping up and running on my site (vaperinthewild.com) but I thought there was something odd about the pricing and I was hoping you all could explain it.

I set up the shipping to be 10x10x10, regular/rectangular.

The shipping costs that come up for First Class Mail Parcel seem rather low. For example, when I selected First Class Mail Parcel on the site it quotes a cost of only $2.07, however when you go to USPS and input the exact same shipping information the First Class Mail Parcel costs $3.26.

Am I missing something or is the USPS just calculating this section too low? All the other shipping prices are inline with the USPS site. Any insight would be appreciated. Thanks!

It's the weight class for the usps shipping module set to pound?

Offset between pounds and ounces in arithmetic outcome in the USPS module is 16 FOLD, so from $2.07 (already too low), $2.07/16 (a twitch under 13c) and $2.07 X 16 (= $33,12) seem not to have startled him enough to mention them.

I ended up just switching over to my flat rates that I set up in weight based shipping.
